This is great news for all in the Etsy community! My little shop seems to have a lot more Etsy first time customers with direct check out sales. These stats are awesome! Hope more people think of Etsy first in 2013!

my best month oddly was October 2010..supposedly during some of the worst economics in the country..
I would love to see what the gift card success is with people..
do we even know when one is being used in our shops?

November was a pretty good month for me too! I'm excited to see how December went, as my sales nearly double that of November. That was my first holiday season with Etsy...It makes me wish for Christmas every month.... ;)

Let's hope January tracks that way too! I just wish my store hasn't been empty in November. Well, until I see a DeLorean fly up or a blue police box, I just need to forge ahead and make now the best it can be!
Congrats everyone!
